Galinka did an absolutely amazing job on designing our website. Communication was excellent and the work was done promptly. Her designs were fantastic and I will likely be using here for another design project.

How smartparts started their web page design journey

Summary

Please see contest brief for detailed description.

Company name

Smart Parts

What inspires you and how do you envision the design for your business?

Hi to everybody. We are upgrading our website http://smart-parts.net. The layout that we have at the moment is only suitable for a limited amount of product categories, it is too narrow and is generally outdated. The new layout must be wider, and fit for as many product lines as possible.
We need two pages to be designed, the home page and the product page. All the other pages we should be able to do ourselves, based on these two.

Below are the detailed instructions.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

Colour colour combination should be #e82f78 and shades of grey. Example of what we have in mind in terms of colour balance- http://shop.orange.co.uk.
Background should be white or very light.
Website should be fixed width, 950px.
Website should be centered.
Website should have three columns, with center column being the biggest. Left and right columns should be between 150 and 170 pixels wide.
Website should look modern, fresh and light.

HOMEPAGE REQUIREMENTS

Header elements:

1. Logo (here). You can resize the text and the picture relative to one another, and move them around, their position in the file is not final. Under the logo, there should be text "laptop accessories retailer")
2. Menu (home | my account | order tracking | returns | contact us | FAQ | product search). There should be a search box to the right of "product search" menu item. You can also remove "product search" from the menu and position it alongside the searchbox separately elsewhere on the header.
3. Contact us graphics (should include the following text: buy online or call 020 3080 0971 mon-fri 11am-7pm).
4. Optionally, an image, like in http://www.mobiles.co.uk. We have an idea to make 30-40 images and rotate them randomly, so that the website never looks quite the same. However, if image looks out of place do not bother with it.

Central column elements:
1. Big promotional banner (you can use the one from here).2. "What's new" section. Must include image, price, possibly some description, and "Go" button of two or tree items. Here are the items:
First
Second

Third (if needed)
3. Product categories. Nine or eight of them in total (depends if you prefer 2 or 3 in a row). Idea may be similar to the one here, but not neccessarily. Images to be used for product categories are:
AC adapters
Car adapters

1. Product image and description. Should be based on this product and should include:
- Title
- This image 500px wide
- Pricetag
- Text "Availability: 23 in stock"
- Text "Time to order for delivery on Monday, Nov 15th - 1hr 23m 55s"
- Overview section
- Specifications section
2. Related products section. Should have small image, possibly short description, pricetag an "Go" button for two or three following products:
First
Second
Third

Below is the list of websites that we like to look at:
Sony shop
Vodafone shop
Ebuyer
Laptopstuff
Apple store
Orange store
